Inner stars are hard to produce.  They have machining of every angle possible.   They are also splined INSIDE.



If TG was using RCV birfs and now has a magic DIFFERENT star, I doubt its because its BETTER but more than likely CHEAPER and FASTER to produce.




I had a spare Long.  I cracked a bell on one a couple years ago.  I replaced it.   Then this year I broke an inner axle which took out the star on the opposite side.  The shock load broke the star clean in half.


Out of fear of an inferior replacement, I robbed the star out of the birf with the cracked bell and put in the birf that just split the star.


So I will be sending in a birf with a cracked bell and a split star.


I will report back with what they send me as compared to what I sent them.
